Cristiano Bubble Boy in Warsaw

13.03.08 @ 18:29:30 von Olaf

Cristiano Blanco has just been eliminated from the tournament by Kenny Hicks Jr. in a hand that Cristiano will not forget for some time.

Cristiano Blanco is the Bubble Boy of the EPT Polish Open in Warsaw. He got busted in 33 place with a real bad beat. He opened the pot with a 13,000 raise from under the gun and the action folded around the table to the small blind, who re-raised it to 40,000. Cristiano flat called, leaving himself 50,000 chips behind.

The dealer spread a jack-high flop and the small blind moved all in, putting Cristiano to a decision for all of his chips. Holding pocket queens, Blanco made the inevitable call and the small blind showed A-K. Cristiano's queens didn't survive the Turn, as the dealer opened an Ace.
The last card to fall off the deck was a six and Cristiano was out of the tournament in 33rd place.
